I've been following Andrew's trek for a new car. He's come to the glorious end–here's his post:

I Have Car.

And it drives niiiice. If you have any interest, take a look – I screwed up and took the picture at an absurdly high resolution. But hey – it's my new car. I'm happy. =)

Democracy vs. Crockracy

As jazz plays in the background, I ask Britt about his wellspring. I'm just channeling this shit, man, he says.

Britt, Doc, I know how you feel. Sometimes writing is channeling and not thinking.

Election Year 2004 = The Year of the Weblog.

The mainstream press is starting to take notice of the power weblogs are having on the presidential election cycle.  Look for this momentum to carry well beyond November 2004.

“A powerful new networking tool for the politically plugged-in and hangers-on, the constant online chatter broadens campaign discourse and accelerates the news cycle.

Such journals, known as blogs, may not be doing much to sway undecided voters, but analysts say they strongly impact the media, campaign consultants and activists.”

Blogging of the President, tomorrow night, 9-11 eastern, on public radio, although apparently not on WUNC or WFDD —  but no worries, you can listen online. Jarvis has a list of the contributors, including (as noted in his comment section) me.

Europe to get fake-tree microwave masts.

A Dutch company has acquired a license to market Envirocom's fake-tree cellular masts in Europe — the next stately pine you whizz past between Reims and Disneyland Paris might contain a giant, carcingoenic microwave tower.

Here's the problem. Dean has tens of millions of dollars. What then? A new party? [Scripting News]

Dave, a great idea. Perot tried this once, but he had the same problem that Dean has: emotional outbursts and “real” feelings and ideas. Dean has doomed himself because he seems *too* immature and not “presidential”. Americans say they want someone with fresh ideas and someone “like the rest of us”, but when confronted with the opportunity (Dean), they fail to the safe side and elect someone that they hope won't get us killed or run the economy in the ground.

Wow.

I ordered my Treo 600 a few days ago. It arrived this morning and I activated it through Sprint. What a phone, what a PDA. The user interface is outstanding, the camera is so easy to use it's scary and the expansion slot has my hands trembling.

I'll put together a review over the weekend.

Wow, what a phone!
